Fish species in Twin Valley Lake

Up in Iowa County, Twin Valley Lake is a reservoir and the best numbers we have right now are about 136 acres and a maximum depth of 32 feet, and that is the kind of basic information I actually want before fishing somewhere new.

I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops by working shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because the easiest way to waste a day is to keep moving without learning anything.

What anglers can target

The current fish list for Twin Valley Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Pumpkinseed, and Rainbow Trout, plus 2 more; so I would pack with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and use the first few bites to narrow the plan.

How I would spend the first few hours

Before I made the drive to Twin Valley Lake, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, then I would verify any special water rules before deciding what can go in the cooler.
